But people who are regular contributors ( which we want to encourage ) will feel slowed down if they have to open a bug report for every change. And I can see github facilitating "proxy maintainers" much better. If a proxy maintainer has another gentoo person who all their changes get proxied through, the proxy maintainer and the gentoo dev could both have forks on github, and the proxy maintainer could send their pull requests to their proxy to vet and merge, somewhat like Linus'es Generals model. > [1] > http://git-blame.blogspot.com.ar/2012/01/using-signed-tag-in-pull-requests.html > > - - Aaron > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (GNU/Linux) > Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ > > iF4EAREIAAYFAk++oYEACgkQVxOqA9G7/aC1WgD/V33WU0Cvc/po2Evrrjk6fM4d > IHt8FtD21rKfyrxmCeQA/A7t/nCJOA5UURm2ILAraPLWu598G8bKV7RNKtRKrqhQ > =MVyV > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > -- Kent perl -e "print substr( \"edrgmaM SPA NOcomil.ic\\@tfrken\", \$_ * 3, 3 ) for ( 9,8,0,7,1,6,5,4,3,2 );" http://kent-fredric.fox.geek.nz
